Hair transplant is the only permanent method of hair restoration in which one's own hair from the back and sides of the head are extracted and implanted on front in the bald area. Nowadays, hair transplant is being done by Follicular unit technique which involves two ways of hair extraction - STRIP method and FOLLICULAR UNIT EXTRACTION (FUE).

In the STRIP method,a strip of skin from the back of head (donor area) is removed with the help of scalpel..The gap at the back of head is then sutured together.The strip is then divided into grafts containing one, two or three follicles.

FUE - Follicular Unit Extraction: A stitchless method of hair restoration in which hair root (follicles) are extracted from the back of head under local anaesthesia with the help of special micropunches and implanted in the bald area. In this procedure, no scalpel is required which is used for cutting skin in the 'strip' surgery. The entire procedure is done by the dermatosurgeons and not by technicians.
The number of sessions will depend on the:
1. Area of scalp treated
2. The number and size of grafts used and
3. The density which the patient desires
4. The individual characteristics of the patient e.g. coarse hair will provide a denser look than fine hair.

Hair fall is the common problem in men and women but hair fall patterns are different. Female pattern baldness is not looking like male pattern baldness. If you are thinking about hair transplant treatment then it's a good idea for you. This treatment will give you a head full of hair after transplant. It takes some time to grow hairs after transplant. After 3-4 months, you can see the results or growth of your new hairs. The growth of hairs after hair transplant is defined as the cycle of hair growth after hair transplant surgery.
